Helen Furber

Now that you have scrolled down all the images and I can just imagine you sitting there lusting after a pair, even if you could never walk on one cause their so high.., let me drop the cherry on the cake. This new shoe design by 2010 Cordwainers Footwear design graduate Helen Furber is S U S T A I N A B L E. That´s right! Fabulous and eco fashion! Not just plastic fantastic that makes you consider twice about abandoning your consumption principles (just this once.. they are just so beautiful) or a basic shoe "in a new eco package" (box made from recycled cardboard).. It is real sustainable luxury footwear with a breathtaking design. Unfortunately this shoe is still a concept prototype and cannot be ordered or bought anywhere. If you want to follow up on Helen´s work, check out her blog.

Helen, your eco designs are the bomb.
I wish you the best in fashion and good vibes on your career.
The fashion industry needs your shoes to come to life.

I've just commented on another blog about these shoes, there is alot of buzz around them!I prefer the white ones but will deffinatly not be lusting for them, I don't where animal by-products. I do however think the shoes are a completely amazing idea and set a great standard for eco friendly clothing.Thanks for sharing!!
